You’ll notice cops aren’t getting hired based on labour output. They’re not getting squeezed for labour or getting their hours extended or bringing machinery to increase their output (they buy their own machinery through the department to protect themselves or enhance how much pain they can inflict and how much privacy they can spy upon, but it’s not actually a capitalist money circuit where their variable capital shrinks as all this constant capital builds up).
